We want to help you to the best of our ability, but first we have to ask and make sure you have taken the proper steps to installing SideStore before we can help.
Without WiFi AND the WireGuard VPN, SideStore cannot function correctly. Try toggling the VPN a few times.
If you have AltStore installed as well as SideStore, you will only be able to install 1 or NO apps in SideStore!
If you are using the official SideStore server you can check https://ani.sidestore.io/ in Safari for a text output.If there is no output, ping a Project Developer immediately!
If you used SideServer on Windows, SideStore will not be able to refresh itself, but other apps will install fine.
Please provide as much information about the error you are experiencing. You can send the minimuxer.log file from inside Files > SideStore as well as in-app screenshots, and that would help us diagnose your issues much faster!
Patience! Please have patience with our Helpers and Developer staff, we are all open source maintainers who do all of this for free on our own time. Thank you!
Did you zip the pairing file before sending it to your device?
Pairing File
- On your computer, download and unzip Jitterbugpair for Windows (64-bit), MacOS, or Linux
- With your device opened to the home screen, plug it into your computer. Once done, execute jitterbugpair. Your pairing file will then be generated.
- During generation, your device may ask to trust your computer. Allow it.
- Zip the file generated and transfer it to your device via google drive, emailing it to yourself, or any other method.
- Within the files app, tap on your zipped pairing file to uncompress it. If you ever update your device, this pairing file will become invalid and you’ll need to generate a new one.
No just airdrop but that worked for me before so 🤷
K well I’d recommend making a new one via the guide above
